EPISODE 421: If you feel stuck in your business, the problem might not be your team, your schedule, or your subs… it might be your identity.

In this episode, I'm discussing one of the biggest hidden growth killers I've seen in the construction world.

The version of you that got your business to this point likely won't get you to where you want to go. In fact, it might be the very thing holding you back.

I will unpack 4 old identities that keep contractors stuck and walk through the new mindsets that will actually free you up to scale.

You'll learn how to stop being the bottleneck, how to think like an investor when hiring people, and how to redefine success in a way that actually serves your life.

🎧 Listen now to start thinking differently, building differently, and leading differently.
